It Is sincerely lo be hoped that the news reports of the day are mistaken In their quoting of Gov. Cole Blec^e of South Carolina as snyjng, in a speech at Arderson, that rather'dhan use his office to stop j. mob of lynchers he would have gone to the scene of the troub lo and helped them. This Is indeed a saddening dis patch. If it quotes the South Our- ollna governor correctly (ard the probability Is that it does) the inevitable result will follow. We of the whole South will be blamed for It by our sometimes ' unsympa thetic friends of the North. Small consideration will be given the circumstance thr-t the sentiment was uttered by a governor who has not the entire sympathy of either his fellow South Carollidans or his fellow Southerners. That is the regrettable part of It. Were Gov. Blease more* truly representrtive of tbe best sentiment of the South, the ensuing blame upon the rest of us might he more tolerable.— Atlanta Gcoigi- 1 The Secret is Oat. “Governor Blease Is to South Car olina. politics what yellow journal ism Is to the newspaper world,” sas The Charlotte Obstaner. “He appeals to the people oc- their low est level, and thus far he has quite surprised the yellow journalist in success.” Now we know what hn- pelled the Deacon to shakr his feet and make his home outside of that Srtate. He Just wf-bted room and liberty to exprtss his feelings about th'j £c,uth Carolina brand of politicians with the bridle off.—Ma-* con News. CRYING FOR HELP.

Khwtc aril Lynching. In view of Gov. Ulease's speech at Anderson, we can not help feel ing sorry for South Carolina. It is bad enough for a State to have a governor whose sympathies c-re with mob law, but matter* are made worse when his boast is tele graphed over the country that he would have led the mob which kill ed a negro, rather than to have called out the militia to protect the culprit. The mob, ii* fact, was led by &. member of the legislature. With the governor in the saddle, the rape of the law would have been complete. It is a pity, but it is a fact, that even yet the< greater pr-rt of the country. North, East and West, does not understand Southern conditions and senti ment, sin! nearly all the Southern States will be judged by what Is read of South Ce^olins. Thus, the false conception which, haa obtain ed for years past of the South as a lawless country is strengthened, and this tingle Ble&ee incident will undo much of the missionary work that had beec- done lately and that was beginning to have good re sults.—^Charlotte Observer.
